The Last Pattern Maker
Season 1 Episode 31 | 4m 17sVideo has Closed Captions
Raleigh Denim's secret weapon isn't scissors or thread - it's one talented woman.
Christel Ellsberg, Raleigh Denim’s 82-year-old pattern-maker is one of kind in the industry. The importance of pattern-makers within the fashion industry is often overlooked. The designer receives all the fanfare, but it’s the pattern-maker who creates the minutely calibrated stencils around which fabric is cut—thus translating the designer’s visions into actual wearable garments.
